Umit-<br><br>I'm not sure if I fully understand your question but I'll try to help you out. The number of hours that are not met can be found in the summary tab of the "Air-side HVAC" tab in eQuest. It's also listed in the .sim file, but its easily found within eQuest. The BEPS report does not give the number of hours, rather just the percentage. If your model is showing over 20% of the hours out of range you will definitely need to go back and resize your systems.<br>

Dear all,<br>
<br>
my second question today. I would like to be sure if my understanding is<br>
right or not about not met loads. Currently I am trying to fill up the<br>
LEED EA Credit 1 submittal. Section 1.3 Advisory Messages There are :<br>
1. Number of hours heating loads not met<br>
2. Number of hours cooling loads not met<br>
<br>
I turn back to my e-Quest outputs ( BEPS Report) in the report I read:<br>
<br>
a. PERCENT OF HOURS ANY SYSTEM ZONE OUTSIDE OF THROTTLING RANGE (Question:<br>
this value is number of heating loads or should be written in LEED<br>
submittal?)(20,9 for Proposed and 23,0 for Baseline, I am not mechanical<br>
engineer but as much as I understood from ASHRAE number of hours not met<br>
should not exceed 300)<br>
b. PERCENT OF HOURS ANY PLANT LOAD NOT SATISFIED ( Question: this value is<br>
for both number of hours heating and cooling not met or just for<br>
Cooling?)(Both in baseline and Proposed 0,0)<br>
<br>
regards<br>
<br>
